But peace and serenity quickly fade when Sam rescues a boy named Charlie from being abducted by a political terrorist organization. Arriving at the nearest police station with the intent of returning Charlie to his powerful and influential father, Sam discovers the police are in cahoots with the abductors, and she's the one being fingered for kidnapping.
